Well, I'm back. Not from any special holiday or anything, but we last minute decided to go visit family this past Monday, and I thought I would take a week off from my blogging obsession. It was strange, and difficult to be honest! I've grown accustomed to waking up early, having my cup-o'-coffee, and working away at the blog. I felt a smidge lost not doing it, but I survived! Anywhoooo.....this summer has not been that hot, but I still like to use the BBQ as much as possible. Making grilled cheese is a favourite, and I would rather BBQ it than have pans to wash any day!

Lay out all your bread on a large cutting board or plate, and butter each piece (picture 1 below). Be sure to butter all the way out to the edge so that it all gets crispy. Then put two pieces butter side together.

Sprinkle some cheese onto the bread (which should be facing you, non-buttered side up like picture 2).

Add any extras you plan to use, then sprinkle some more cheese on top of that.

Clean the hot grill grates really well. Get all the carbon off the surface by using a good brush or scraper. If you haven't got a scraper, wad up some aluminum foil and scrub the grates.

Carefully take the top piece of bread (the one with everything on it), and place it on the grill. Then take the second piece of bread from that sandwich, and place it on top of it's partner on the grill, butter side up.

Close the lid, but don't go a'wandrin'! Give them about 2 minutes before you take a look at the bottoms. You want the bread a nice colour before you flip it.

Flip and grill the other side. If the bread is toasty, but the cheese isn't sufficiently melted, place a piece of tin foil on it, turn the BBQ off and close the lid for a minute or two until it's melted.

Remove from BBQ, slice, and serve!

Well, that's it for today!!! I hope everyone has a great day! It's raining here, but I'm not too worried. My gardens will be happy, and the kids and I can have some indoor fun/lazy p.j. day!

OMG...my kids would rather a grilled cheese on the BBQ any day too! Try it with fresh bread from Sweet Temptations Bakery too. It's so thickly sliced and heavenly...Mmmm
